Number is 3. Don’t know how to do it without scans. That’s what I was told. Maybe there’s more to it.

Judith, I moved this discussion to your earlier discussion on the same topic to review the suggestions you received from other members.

It’s scary to have such a reaction. I can understand your hesitancy. I hope that you can talk with your oncology team to discuss options for proper surveillance with or without an MRI with contrast. There may be options to such as Benedryl to avoid the reaction or different scan or follow up options.

It sounds like there may be more to it and worth your asking questions to be clear on the options and the benefits and risks of each.
